If anyone was expecting a plated Gerbera Straight, it's their own damn fault for thinking Bandai would go the extra mile on a cheap HG kit when they could just as easily reuse the runners they used for last year's M1 Astray kit. In short, please get over it. HG kits are not premium items, things like stickers are the rule and not the exception.
I don't own it, but looking at Dalong's site, the 'normal' Red Frame HG comes with a plated blade. So they've dumbed it down on this release compared to the previous HG kit.
That's not plated in the least. It's slightly shiny solid grey. Presumably you saw the 1/100 Red Frame. No Astray at the 144 scale has come with anything plated.
Anon at 8:04, please don't state anything while you obviously didn't own the kit. The old kit has silver plated katana, if you sand paper it, you can even see the plastic color which is white.
no silver coating for the sword?
ReplyDeleteand it uses foil sticker instead of coating? bandai you gotta be kidding me
don't worry, you can still use the old hg.

DeleteYou guys get better engineering yet are disappointed when the blade's not painted? This kit is years beyond the previous HG kit.
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you fucking retards know how to paint?
ReplyDeleteIs a brush too complex to use?
